2 medium yellow squash, cut into 1 1/2-inch strips (1 1/2 cups)
3 garlic cloves, quartered
cooking spray
8 ounces uncooked farfalle (bow tie pasta)
1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
1 cup frozen petite green peas, thawed
1/3 cup whipping cream
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup finely shredded fresh parmesan cheese
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 500°.
2. Combine carrot, squash, and garlic on a jelly-roll pan coated with cooking spray; coat vegetables generously with cooking spray. Roast vegetables at 500° for 20 minutes or until tender and browned, stirring after 15 minutes.
